West on the Corner have closed less than three years after they first opened on Woodlands Road.

The decision to open the west end pub, which closed on Friday, was described as a "heart over head" business decision that was no longer commercially viable for the brewing firm.

Managing director Petra Wetzel revealed they had been considering closure for "a few months" – citing the rising costs of rent and insurance and a struggle to recruit qualified chefs as a "huge frustration" to WEST.
